Firing 7000 IRS agents will make it even easier for the rich to get away with skirting what they owe. But it's also a gift to the multi-billion dollar tax prep industry. Fewer IRS agents to help you file your taxes means more money in the pockets of companies like TurboTax.

If Democrats want to regain working people, they must disavow Big Money. That starts with banning super PAC donations in Dem primaries. There’s no way the party can speak for the majority of working people in America if it's beholden to corporate interests.

Trump wants to extend his tax cuts for rich individuals, which would add $4.6T to the deficit. But he wants to go even further, cutting the corporate tax rate to 15%. It's yet another absolutely shameless giveaway.

This is why you fight these cowards. The moment you stand up to them, they crumble. Homan has nothing. The Fourth Amendment is clear and I am well within my duties to educate people of their rights. He can threaten me with jail and call names all he wants. He’s got nothing else.

The IRS Free File pilot program helped 140K taxpayers save $5.6M in tax filing costs in 2024. Despite recent claims, the program is still running and is now available to 30M people in 2025. Any attempt to dismantle it will enrich the tax prep industry at your expense.
